Shame BIS wants people to test out this stuff but some can't even play on any DEV servers Is the server running the 64 bit exe? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Showcase infantry down from around 25-30 FPS to about 8;-) Not sure if any settings in parameters will help at mo. No mods loaded. Not expecting miracles.... but every little helps;-) Win 10, i7-4810MQ @2.8GHz MSI GT40 2 PC Dominator laptop, 24 GB RAM,Nvidia Geforce 860M 6GB RAM. I don't want to be mean and that isn't the point of me posting here but, this is dev-test branch of game to start with. 64 bit at its very early stages. Excuse me but you are talking about laptop, already crippled - handicapped hardware not running this test branch as it should. I dont think it is the best idea to run a developer branch of arma on laptop, just saying. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kridian 33 Posted December 16, 2016 Almost made the drive around Tanoa island until game crashed. I don't get it, if I set the "System memory limit (64-bit) to 8095", why did the "Commit" memory blaze through that barrier and cause the crash? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Valken 622 Posted December 16, 2016 58 minutes ago, road runner said: The two mods know to conflict are ACE3 and ALiVE FYI - BETA 64 BIT DLLs here: Put the dlls INTO the mod folder eg: @ACE3 or whatever the steam folder is. It needs to be right next to the older 32bit dll files. Same for Task Force Radio! I tested ACE3 in 64 bit last night! Works like a champ and the 64 bit does help with stuttering. Hope I can find a better 64 bit graphics driver for my aging gpu but in actual game play, maybe 5 FPS difference but my min frames feel smoother overall with the same settings. Will try to increase the object and terrain detail up to ultra and draw distances. I was getting a ton of out of memory crashes in the Dev 1.67 32 bit but so far, none in 64 bit. Now with ACE3 working, back to more testing! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks, I'll give the ACE one a go, what posters and members need to realise as well as that the 64 bit exe is still in the DEV/Test stage, the conflicting addons are doing the right thing, by waiting for the bugs to be ironed out, and the 64 bit hits main branch. It's still very much being put through its paces. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Okay, I don't really like telling people what they should do to make all their folders visible, as some, the important ones are hidden by default. you can search on how to do that through google, as I don't want to be blamed for something that can go wrong mate. Also try searching for it in C:Drive just type in .rpt in the search box, it should come up with a whole load, it''s the one that says arma 3 on it you need to look at.

m0nkm0nk 0 Posted December 16, 2016 Thanks BI for the update (: So, 64bit executable but still my process manages to stay around 2/3gb of ram. I wonder how you guys did manage to fill it up as shown in the OPREP screenshots. Tried different ram allocators (64b included). All on Ultra and even with 12km viewdistance. Must say it did run very smooth and loading times are almost gone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1LT.Wolf.F 10 Posted December 16, 2016 I got a weird issue... Arma 32bit works normally; however, if I launch 64bit, I get extreme mouse lag. if I move my mouse in circles, the FPS drops as low as 15FPS (from a constant 63FPS). When playing a single player campaign if I move the mouse erratically for 2-3 seconds, the character continues to move for 1-2 after I stop moving the mouse. I played with mouse smoothing and acceleration and vsync (normally I have them all completely off) nothing fixes it save reloading in 32 bit mode... Pity cause otherwise the game is running fantastically in 64bit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't see anything definitive that says 32bit, x86, 64bit, or amd64...

Valken 622 Posted December 16, 2016 Are you using any mouse acceleration software from a 3rd party? IF so, try to disable ALL of it. Some of those may not be 64 bit or just betas. Even though I use a Logitech MX Revolution (love this mouse), I ONLY use the default windows mouse drivers. I have mouse smoothing turned OFF under controls in ARMA also. Try that.

DJRy 17 Posted December 16, 2016 If you are running on a laptop and getting bad performance read this!! If you are running on your laptop with an nvidia graphics card, make sure you add the arma3_x64.exe to the Nvidia control panel and check that you have your Nvidia card selected instead of integrated graphics. My performance was terrible until I realized that because its a new x64.exe the game is running off of. I needed to add this new executable and specify to not run on integrated graphics. Hope this helps some of you that may be having issues. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KoalaDSK 122 Posted December 16, 2016 I for myself have very good performance in the game (not have tested Georgetown yet) since the upgrade to 64-bit. I am only using following parameter settings: 64-bit.exe, -skipintro and -nosplash and left everything else untouched (default). Even in AI heavy missions (f.e. recent official "Combat Patrol" mission) the performance in Kavala was between 30-40 fps and pretty good on my end. My specifications: GPU: GTX 580 3GB VRAM CPU: i7 3770K (oc 4.00 Ghz) RAM: (3x4) 12 GB 1666 Mhz OS: Win10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
